'Is this an international match or street cricket…' Video of Zimbabwe's poor fielding goes viral

Bangladesh is playing a 5-match T20 series against Zimbabwe at home in preparation for the T20 World Cup 2024. The host team has taken an unassailable lead by winning the first three matches of the series, whereas in the fourth T20 match on the ground of Dhaka, such a sight was seen on the field which perhaps cannot be seen even in street cricket. In this match, Bangladesh team batted first and scored 143 runs in 19.5 overs, whereas in their innings, such poor fielding was seen from the Zimbabwe team, which no one had expected.

Zimbabwe fielders missed an easy run out

During this match, when Bangladesh team was batting, one of its players tried to take a single by playing the ball lightly, after which the fielder hit the throw, but due to the throw being missed, the batsman tried to take the second run. In an attempt to stop the run on this over throw, the Zimbabwean fielder threw the ball straight to the non-strike end, where the standing fielder stopped the ball near the stumps, but missed an easy run out from there too. Now this video of Zimbabwe team's fielding is going viral on social media.

Bangladesh won this match by 5 runs

Talking about this match, while playing first, Bangladesh team was out for 143 runs, while while chasing the target, Zimbabwe team was out for 138 runs in 19.4 overs. In this match, Shakib Al Hasan took 4 wickets while Mustafizur Rahman took 3 wickets in bowling for Bangladesh. Now the last match of this series between the two teams will be played on May 12 on the ground of Dhaka.
